Cory,
We have tested this in Windows 7 and have not been able to reproduce the
lockup you describe. It is possible that this is specific to XP. Do you
notice any difference if you change to another screen saver or set the
screen to simply power off when not in use?
Regards,
Steve

Because Windows defaults to having it on and I have enough vision to see
light enough that it's nice to have the screen darken when not in use,
but strange for me to be in front of a screen which is off. I've never
even really thought about it till now as I've always had one on.

Subject: Screen saver hangs speech with WE7.5.1
Hello all,
Firstly this looks like a really nice update with lots of fixes. I
haven't thus far had any problems with internet browsing on Internet
Explorer 8 *knocks on wood*. However there is still some strange
issue; happening, left my computer for about half an hour and came
back to my screen saver being on. This is just the usual star-field
simulation that ships with Windows xp. When I pressed something to
remove the screen saver (control key) Window Eyes seemed to be
hanging. I loaded Jaws from a hot-key sequence to try to get speech
back to terminate Window Eyes and as Jaws loaded and started talking,
Window Eyes speech resumed as normal. I then unloaded Jaws and
disabled my screen saver for the time being however I would really
like to know what might be causing Window Eyes trouble with something
as simple as this which has been around Windows since the beginning.
I realize for a blind person having a screen-saver is not really
necessary however it is quite normal for a computer to have one on.
Is there something I can do to resolve this problem? Or is this some
kind of strange bug needing squashing?
Thanks,
Cory
